Just wanted to say hi!



Recommended Posts

Just joined after browsing here a few times. My sleeve is on Dec. 19th. It's day 3 of my preop diet. I am a surgical nurse and I can't wait to not hurt everyday. I am excited and nervous. I appreciate everyone's honesty on here. It has really helped me decide who to tell and how to tell them what's going on. I have a great husband and support system. As I am telling people I am finding that people are really excited and positive which is awesome. Anyone else missing coffee creamer like I am? So weird that I was so attached to it!! Haha.

Welcome to the boards!

I'm still new here myself, but I love the "search" feature/box. AMAZING! Whatever question/topic I may have, I type it in the box up there and get all kinds of responses from different time frames.

Welcome and hope to "see" you around!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
